XWall Protects Your SMTP Relay
 Today
an open relay is not acceptable. Relay abuse is a major
issue and you need to take care of any relay problems
you may have. Just as The RBL and SLS spam lookup services
test random mail servers, so do the spammers. Your open
relay will be found by both sides and that spells real
trouble for you. Protecting the relay is just one of
the many functions of XWall. For a lot of XWall users
the benefit of relay protection is very valuable. So
much so that some actually bought XWall for just that
purpose. If you are not sure about your relay situation
use the open relay test link on our Email
test page.
Your
users will get frustrated when they try to send an email
to clients and they never get it.
Why? - Because your mail server was found to be an open
relay by a Spam lookup service and now your mailserver
is on a blacklist. Companies using these lists will
block your email. If you feel that may have happened
to you, our Email
test page provides links to a spam service test
You just installed
a new Exchange server using a fancy dual processor machine
but the mail is slower every day. Why? -
The Spamers found you and use your open relay to mail
millions of spam messages. That's bad enough but thousands
of servers block the messages your server sends and
it will retry and retry and retry .... you get the idea.
XWall for Exchange and for most
SMTP Mail servers offers excellent spam filtering
and a bullet proof relay protection. Unlike some mail
servers the is protection is turned on right out of
the box. Some companies have a need to relay outsiders
or other servers over their mail system. XWall
is well equipped to handle these situations.
